I believe in the Loch Ness Monster. Do you?

I have had a fascination with the Loch Ness Monster since I read about it in a book when I was 7 years old. I decided right then and there that some day I would travel to Loch Ness and see it for myself. I know what you're thinking. I'm an idiot, right? I read anything I could get my hands on about the subject; inspected all of the photographs. I know many (most? all?) of them are hoaxes. But it sort of became this "X-Files" "I want to believe" situation for me. I know logically and biologically it doesn't make any sense for such a creature to exist. But I feel like a child on the cusp of figuring out the truth about Santa Claus. That moment in your life where you realize it's not true, but you still want it to be true. And somehow I'm happily trapped in that moment. I know it's not real, but I want it to be real. I've shown the very same book that originally fascinated me to DS and made him promise that when he turns 30 yo we will celebrate with a trip to Scotland to see for ourselves.

Nope, I don't think you're an idiot and I think it's great that you promised DS to go there when he's 30! Personally, I don't dispute anything without some good hard facts proving if it does or does not exist.

It's impossible to know every single creature living under water, and those lakes and the oceans are so deep! I absolutely believe there's something to the Nessie story, so I don't think you're crazy at all. I really hope you get to Scotland and end up seeing her!
